    What is the point of doxing people for owning a Tesla? A lot of people bought their tesla way before Musk went full nazi.

    Maybe we should focus on the person doing something wrong, which is Elon Musk.

      Because too many people are frothing at the mouth for violence and don’t have enough sense to realize that very obvious/important point.

      Edit: In before “well they should just sell it then!!!1!”

      1. I’d imagine trade-in values for those right now are going to be pretty low.
      2. Not everyone can afford to do that, especially with car prices likely to rise due to tariffs.
      3. Interest rates aren’t great if they have to finance the replacement car
      4. Everyone’s life situation is different. An oversimplified “just do [blank] to satisfy my illogical demands or else you’re a Nazi sympathizer and deserve to have your property vandalized” isn’t practical.
      5. Don’t fuck with people’s property.

          Guarantee it. Thought my block/ban button would get a break after the election was over, but looks like election season was just getting it warmed up.

        This right here. I agree that such people advocating these positions must be bad actors, but in case there are real people who think they alone hold the moral bar that everyone must clear: “Go fuck yourself.” Everyone has to start somewhere, and alienating those that are still learning is not helping.

      I know two people who own Teslas and neither of their places is on the map. I suspect (and it is only a suspicion) that the map may only list cyber truck owners? Anyone know any Tesla/cyber truck owners they can check?

        None of the people I know who own Teslas (mix of pre-owned and bought new) are on here, but by poking around I did find a random person with a normal Tesla parked out front on Google street view, so it’s not just cybertrucks.

        I also sought out my partner’s neighbor who has a cybertruck in the driveway every time I’m there, and that wasn’t on there, so I have no idea where dogequest might be sourcing this info.
